| - I love this gym!
I was the first person to sign up when Yak's first opened in August 2011. Ever 100 visits, the computer blares a trumpet to congratulate you for 100 visits. I had 200 visits before the next closest member got 100 LOL.
I've been weightlifting for over 20 years and seriously lifting for the past 5 years. I'm on paleo diet, LeanGains intermittent fasting, and I do a hardgainer/reverse pyramid strength training program. All free weights almost no machines. No cardio other than low intensity steady state walking. That said, I know they gym has cardio classes, spinning classes, and tanning, but i've never used any those services so I have no idea as to the quality.
When I evaluate a gym, all I look at it is the weights. The gym is very clean and I love how the weights are properly racked whether its 7AM or 7PM. There is only one squat rack, but I rarely have to weight more than 5 minutes to get to use it. There isn't a set up for dead lifts--I have to grab the bar off the incline bench (which I hardly ever see get used). I rarely, if ever, need to wait to get to something I need.
It's not a very large gym, but I've never seen it packed and its great for doing a serious work out and getting out.
Also Shelly, Chris, and there' staff are really nice folks.
